No He won't. He's coming back for HIS Church, that's free of spot or wrinkles.

Jesus said it palinly, if you cannot forgive those who offend you then God will not forgive you. Matthew 6:15, so to answer your question, no, God will not allow anything unclean into heaven and the includes unforgiveness, In the Gospel of Matthew Jesus also stated " when you pray if u have fault against your brother, leave your gift at the altar and go to him and make it right." I hope this helped you out...

I guess yes, we will b allowed to mar Heaven , coz we believe in The Lord Jesus Christ. In Heavens there will b , if to speak, classes, some will b shinning like the Sun, some will b given crowns, etc. So those who dont forgive others will b of a lower class. And God will b remembering their sins.
Good luck!

Do you have it in your heart Ben to forgive those who offend you.If not then you will look to your God for guidance.I get offended on hear all the time and as a non believer i do not see forgiveness or not as a problem,however the offence still serves to hurt my feelings and that is sometimes hard to deal with.When i am asking controversial or evokative questions i know i am putting myself in the firing line and i expect to be offended.

According to traditional Christian teachings, the forgiveness of others is amongst the spiritual duties of the Christian believer. God is generally considered to be the original source of all forgiveness, which is made possible through the suffering and sacrifice of Jesus, and is freely available to the repentant believer. As a response to God's forgiveness, the Christian believer is in turn expected to learn how to forgive others; some would teach that the forgiveness of others is a necessary part of receiving forgiveness ourselves, and vice versa. In fact, at the end of the Lord's Prayer, Jesus says that unless we forgive we won't be forgiven.
The person who is forgiven is not necessarily released from any obligation to make material or financial amends. By forgiving someone the person doing the forgiving becomes free.
Key Biblical texts on the subject of forgiveness include:
* The Lord's Prayer - " Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us" (Matthew 6:9–13, Luke 11:2–4)
* "Peter came to Jesus and asked, 'Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?' Jesus answered, 'I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times (or seventy times seven).'" (Matthew 18:21-22)
This introduces the most relevant parable, that of the Unmerciful Servant, which concludes: "In anger his master turned him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed. This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart." (Matthew 18:34-35)
* "And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins." (Mark 11:25)
This can be taken to imply that the exercise of forgiveness is part of that repentance through which the believer has access to the forgiveness of God.
* "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do." Luke 23:34. Uttered by Jesus Christ as he was put to death.
* "Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." (Ephesians 4:32)

No. If we can not forgive someone for wrong doing us, then we will not be forgiven by Jesus, or God. Cause remember, Jesus forgave us for our sins by dying on the cross. So if we can't forgive someone on earth. Then we wont be forgiven in heaven. G.B.

Tough call.
Unforgiveness is almost a deal-breaker; Jesus taught we would have to forgive others, if we wanted to be forgiven.
I think our bigotry might very well mar HELL instead!

A bigot is a prejudiced person who is intolerant of opinions, lifestyles, or identities differing from his or her own.
Anti-Christian discrimination, anti-Christian prejudice, Christianophobia or Christophobia is a negative categorical bias against Christians or the religion of Christianity. Such prejudice and discrimination is a type of religious intolerance and a form of religious discrimination. Anti-Christian prejudice can be held by individuals or groups, and may be the result of religious or antireligious fanaticism or bigotry. Anti-Christian discrimination is practiced by members of other religions, as well as antireligious adherents of secularism[1]. As a mental and emotional attitude, anti-Christian discrimination leads to stereotyping, hate, and oppression. Anti-Christian prejudice results in the dissemination of hate speech, the commission of hate crimes, and the formation of hate groups, as well as other forms of discriminatory behaviour. Widespread Anti-Christian discrimination may attach social stigma to Christians or Christian beliefs, and may result in an experience of social inequality by Christians. In nations where freedom of religion is limited, the issue becomes persecution of Christians.

Matthew 6:14 For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, 15 but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

You need to forgive as you wish to be forgiven. If you can't learn to forgive then don't be surprised when you are not forgiven in your final day.
